"Platoon" ... Its not as bad as "Injured" IMO. Because with Platoon you lose sleep for weeks, debating, "Keep him?" "Drop Him?" And ya know you should cut him loose, its the right thing to do. But as soon as ya do ... Jimy Williams hits his head and has a vision and .. walla ... There goes your corner ....
